Every year a new crop of first-years rolls into school, and every year you'll see these same eight types.

1. The "I'm taking 24 credits my first-semester" firstie

Put the number for mental health services on your speed dial. No, seriously. Do it now.

2. The "I'm doing every club in the school ever" firstie

You'll quit half of them within the first week.

3. The "I'm bringing every article of clothing that has been in my family since the Great Depression" firstie

Seriously, don't your arms hurt after carrying all those suitcases up three flights of stairs?

4. The "I'm too cool for this" firstie

We all envy you.

5. The "I'm calling home every day loudly in the common room" firstie

You miss your family – we get it. But we don't need to hear you cooing over your dog on Skype from three stories up. (*This was literally me except I was the jerk who whistled to her pet bird.)

6. The firstie who never stops complaining about school the entirety of their first semester

Girl, it's your first semester, get a grip. But seriously, hang in there. If you're still miserable after a few months, consider transferring. So many people do it. It's not the end of the world and if you're truly miserable here, you won't regret it.

7. The firstie who read the entire syllabus in high school and calls class "easy"

We get it. You went to private school. Don't act like it's so shocking that we haven't all read The Complete Works of Shakespeare.

8. The firstie* who has loud sex with their partner every weekend

Ah, young love. Where did I leave my earplugs?

*they might even continue this into their senior year (no shade...)
